"Well you see I have treated many old people, and it is quite interesting to watch what the unconscious is doing with the fact that it is apparently threatened with the complete end, it disregards it. Life behaves as if it were going on, and so I think it is better for old people to live on, to look forward to the next day, as if we had to spend centuries, and then he lives properly, but when he is afraid, when he doesn't look forward, when he looks back, it petrifies him, he gets stiff, and he dies before his time, but when he is living on, looking forward to the great adventure that is ahead, then he lives, and that is about what the unconscious is intending to do, because it's quite obvious that were all going to die, and this is the sad finale of everything, but, nevertheless, there is something in us that doesn't believe it."
